    Early to bed early to rise Makes a man happy healthy and wise.
    The less you say the better you do.
    When you are well off "You are on the pigs back.
    An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
    For age and want save while you may
    No morning sun lasts a whole day.
    Live horse and you will get grass.
    Correct in yourself what you blame in others.
